Anyone is free to contribute by forking the github repository : ) I'm not too far from having it fully ported, I'm now working on the viewport drawing part. Once that's done, I will have to do just a few adjustments here and there. Haven't encountered a show-stopping problem so far, but the port is proceeding slowly due to a limited free time. (And blender documentation is almost non-existent, especially for the 2.8 api, which further slows down the process)
